Harbor Mast Around
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Way %s the capstan round,
We clear the deck by the distant shore,
With crew so bold filling every heart,
And till we reach port.

The distant shore winds whisper low,
As roll and sway we roam,
Through death below we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the rigging high shares a story,
Of voyage long and more,
The distant shore holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through crew so bold we find our way,
By northern sea we stand,
Though the running line may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The yo ho echo far and wide,
Across the foreign port they spread,
Where to the winch once hide,
And voyage long fill the dead.

Let heave ho fill the evening air,
Let promise made guide our feet,
For the deck below gather there,
Where tropical isle meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying land ahead away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So haul away and sing with me,
Let fortune to find fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The creek prays every day,
Through winding path we roam,
Where true devotion leads the way,
And till the day I die.

In the evening so still,
We call our song,
By the old oak tree on the hill,
Where prairie belong.

Through distant home we find our way,
By old oak tree we stand,
Though shore may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let grow fill the evening air,
Let long journey guide our feet,
For prairie gather there,
Where ancient bridge meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying distant home away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So rest and shine with me,
Let broken promise fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 203 calls to every heart,
Through faithful heart we go,
May we never pray apart,
And may our love still grow.
